Possesses a lot of nice one-on-one moves to either get his own shot off or create for his teammates. Has worked to become a good distributor. Can be hard to stop as a scorer for stretches. Both smooth and explosive; fluid, a fantastic leaper, and a very good finisher.

Flaws:

Doesn't consistently get the most out of his top-tier athleticism (and could produce more steals). Needs to be a more consistent shooter in general.

Pacers point guard Donald Sloan racked up 16 points, seven rebounds and nine assists in Sunday's game against the Lakers.

Impact

Sloan is playing a nice all-around game and fantasy owners probably don't want George Hill or C.J. Watson to return anytime soon. Sloan has averaged 13 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 7.5 apg over the last two contests.

Impact

He was 10-of-13 from the field and 6-of-9 from the line for 29 points. Sloan also had five assists, three 3-pointers, two rebounds, one steal, and one turnover. He will not score this much on a nightly basis, but will have a chance to contribute all season.

Donald Sloan scores 21 vs. Nets on Sat. | 07/05/2014 11:35 AM

News

Donald Sloan scored a team-high 21 points in Saturday's 101-81 Orlando Pro Summer League loss to the Nets to go with four boards, three assists and one steal.

Impact

He made 9-of-11 at the line and was Indiana's best player today. Sloan wasn't very good last season even when George Hill needed to miss time, so he's not likely to be a major part in the rotation.

Donald Sloan set to start on Wednesday | 04/09/2014 2:30 PM

News

Donald Sloan will start at point guard vs. the Bucks on Wednesday with the regular starters getting rest.

Rotoworld.com

Impact

The Pacers won't have C.J. Watson all the way back, so Sloan could see all the minutes he can handle tonight. His numbers obviously aren't very impressive at 7.3 minutes per game, but his per-36-minute averages are decent at 9.7 points, 3.9 boards, 4.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 triples. It's a decent matchup for him, so Sloan isn't the worst option at point guard for owners who are feeling saucy.

Donald Sloan returned from a personal absence on Monday, logging 12 minutes on his way to five points, two rebounds and a steal.

Impact

Sloan is filling in for C.J. Watson and the Pacers have plenty of guys to play backup point guard in a pinch. He has no fantasy value.

Pacers guard Donald Sloan is expected to return from a personal absence on Monday.

Impact

He should absorb 10+ minutes in a backup role with C.J. Watson (elbow, hamstring) still questionable to play, but fantasy owners can ignore him as long as George Hill is healthy.

News

News

The Pacers and free agent PG Donald Sloan have agreed on a multi-year contract.

Ken Berger on Twitter

Impact

Sloan signed with a team in China in February, and his last significant NBA stint came with the Cavaliers last year when he averaged 4.1 points and 1.9 assists in 13 minutes per game. With George Hill and C.J. Watson already filling the Pacers' PG position, we don't expect to see very much of Sloan this season.

Marc Stein on Twitter

Impact

He couldn't beat out Jeremy Pargo to be Kyrie Irving's backup and Sloan will now have to compete with Brian Roberts for minutes. Roberts has been solid in his rookie season, so there's not a lot to like with Sloan.
